End Notes

1 BJT, ChS: Bàlavaggo; Thai: Dhammapadagàthàya Pa¤camo Bàlavaggo

2 Thai: bàlàna'

3 PTS: dhanaü m' atthi; Thai: dhanamatthi

4 PTS: ma¤¤atã balyaü

5 BJT: vi¤¤u

6 PTS: ma¤¤atã; the readings in this line, and in line c in PTS are m.c. to produce the pathyà cadence, but the fifth variation (vipulà) is acceptable, and has the most manuscript support, so there is no need for a change in the normal word form.

7 PTS: paccatã.

8 Thai places bàlo in brackets; ChS omits atha. Metre: as it stands there are two syllables too many in line d, the vv.ll.s arise from trying to regularize the metre. If this is a Vetàlãya line as Norman (WD) suggests, then it is a very unusual shape (cf. 119d; 120d).

9 ChS: bhu¤jeyya

10 PTS: nàgghati

11 PTS, Thai: bhasmàcchanno

12 Thai: muddhaü

13 Thai, ChS: Asantaü

14 Thai: bhàvam-

15 BJT: kataü ma¤¤antå; (å is a printer's error) in the text niggahãta is lost m.c. to give the pathyà cadence.

16 PTS, ChS: mam' evàtivasà

17 Editor's note: BJT, nibbàna-, against its usual spelling

18 Metre: note that -br- does not make position here, which is very unusual for br in medial position.

19 ChS: Bàlavaggo pa¤camo niññhito
